Christmas at the Churches.

The Christmas Sunday school celebra-
tons at the Episcopal, Congregational
and NJ E. churches, Saturday evening,
were all we'll attended. At St. Paul's
church the choral service was finely rem
dered by the Sunday school scholars and
choir boys, and the accustomed gifts from
the Christmas tree were distributed. The
early service at o'clock Christmas morn
ing was made of more than usual inter
est by the admission of fourteen lads into
the supplied choir. The center aisle OF
the church has series of evergreen arches
and the same style of decoration is OBJ
served in the chancel, giving the church
handsome and seasonable appearance.
At tae Congregational church there
was an elaborate display of trimming APP
propriate to the Christmas time, and "The
Dawn OF Peace" rendered by the Sunday
school scholars, was a marked and inter
esting feature of the evening. The other
recitations with musical selections and
the well loaded Christmas tree completed
the observance of the anniversary of a
Savior's birth.
The Methodist church Sunday school
gave the cantata Catching Kris Kringle'
in manner that interested and amused
both old and young, and the Christmas
tree bore abundant fruit in the shape OF
presents to little and big.

PARIS. August 2.-Gen. b Julans er's
seconds publish a report Of what they
say transpired al this conference be-
tween them aud the seconds OF M.
Ferry. This report is in substance as
follows: Gen. Boulanger desired
serious repsration, one properly pro-
porlioued to the gravity Of M. Ferry's
aflront. Ga this accoun. he proposed
that the combatants exchange shots
until one was hit, the choice Of the
distance 10 be left to the
seconds Of M. Ferry. These conditions
not being accspted, Gen, Bsulanger'e
seconds agreed TO be content with an
exchange Of shots between the priuci.
pals ut twenty PAGES without any
word OF command. Considering this
proposal to embody the extreme
limit Of Gen. Boulanger's formal In.
structions, his seconds did not feel
authorized 10 make any further propo.
sition. M. Ferry's seconds would
only accept q duel at twenty-five
spaces with single exchange Of shots,
the FIRE to be opined at a word Of com.
mand. Thereupon, as the offended
party hes the right TO dictate
the conditions Of q duel with.
out being Obliged TO sub
NIT 10 terms dictsted by his
adversary's seconds, Gen. Boulsngcr's
seconds withdrew from the affair. M
Ferry's seconds confirm the statement
that they were unable 10 come 10 III
agreement respecting the conditions o.
the duel bstween their principal
and Gen. BoulsDger. They explain
that they proposed the same conditions
as those under which Gen. Boulangsi
fought with Baron Lnreinty, and thai
Gen. Baulanger's seconds refused /,
accept such conditions, claiming tina
they had the right to settle the detail
OF the affair. Mr.. Ferry's seconds de
cllned to admit the claim Of the offend
ed party 10 settle the conditions.
